[ODS] Introduce IntEnumAttr
In ODS, right now we use StringAttrs to emulate enum attributes. It is suboptimal if the op actually can and wants to store the enum as a single integer value; we are paying extra cost on storing and comparing the attribute value. This CL introduces a new enum attribute subclass that are backed by IntegerAttr. The downside with IntegerAttr-backed enum attributes is that the assembly form now uses integer values, which is less obvious than the StringAttr-backed ones. However, that can be remedied by defining custom assembly form with the help of the conversion utility functions generated via EnumsGen. Choices are given to the dialect writers to decide which one to use for their enum attributes. PiperOrigin-RevId: 255935542
